Joe Rogan Experience #2495 - Tim Burchett

Burchett walks Rogan through his years pushing for government disclosure on UFOs/UAPs, describing classified briefings, hostile intelligence officials, and pilots brought in to testify. The conversation widens into what he sees as systemic Washington corruption: congressional insider stock trading, dark money, and billions in cash flowing to the Taliban through NGOs and the UN. They dig into MK Ultra, the Kennedy and Trump assassination attempts, COVID and Big Pharma, and Trump's psychedelics executive order. Burchett repeatedly frames the throughline as powerful interests hiding the truth from ordinary Americans, while sharing personal stories about his WWII-veteran parents.
